This document outlines the approach taken by the Leather Impact Accelerator (LIA) Impact Partnership Pilot project, exploring Impact Partnership Incentives. While Impact Incentives work in a similar way to existing book & claim systems by rewarding already certified producers, Impact Partnership Incentives allow brands and retailers to support on-the-ground Program Partners to help producers transition towards best practices and certification.

This pilot was part of the Impact Alliance: Incentivising better production practices project, led by Textile Exchange (2021-2022), supported by the ISEAL Innovations Fund and Swiss Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO).
